<div><p>Before performing Hyper-V backup and restoration, you must register a Hyper-V virtualization environment with the <span>OceanProtect</span>.</p>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Context</h4><ul><li>When registering a Hyper-V virtualization environment with the <span>OceanProtect</span>, you can set <strong>Type</strong> to <strong>SCVMM</strong>, <strong>Cluster</strong>, or <strong>Host</strong>. If there are multiple independent hosts, each host must be registered.</li><li>After registering the Hyper-V virtualization environment, you can view information about clusters, hosts, or VMs on the WebUI and protect or restore them. Hosts and VMs can be restoration targets as well.</li></ul>
